Books are the core of not only my children's education, but my own continued education.  I'm currently reading The Jungle by Upton Sinclair and How to Rule the World From Your Couch by Laura Day.  Brent is reading James and the Giant Peach by Roald Dahl and Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix by JK Rowling. Callie is reading The Bronze Bow by Elizabeth George Speare and numerous other books.
